Rate Laws II worksheet- answer on your OWN paper!

A reaction between gaseous substances A and B proceeds at a measurable rate. The following set of data
has been accumulated:

Experiment Initial [A] Initial [B] Initial Rate

No. [mole/liter] [mole/liter] [M/min.]
1 1.00 0.25 0.26
2 1.00 0.50 0.52
3 1.00 1.00 1.04
4 2.00 1.00 4.16

(A) What is the rate law expression for the reaction of A + B C ?

(B) What is the numerical value of the reaction rate constant? What are the units?

(C) What is the initial rate of reaction in a system where each of the reactants is at a concentration of 4.0 x
10-4 M?

For the reaction: 3H2(g) + N2(g)  2NH3(g)

Experiment Initial [H2] Initial [N2] Initial Rate
No. [mole/liter] [mole/liter] [mole/liter/min.]
2 1.00 x 10-3 0.50 x 10-3 2.23 x 10-9
-3
3 1.00 x 10 1.00 x 10-3 8.92 x 10-9
-3
4 2.00 x 10 1.00 x 10-3 8.92 x 10-9

(D) How does the rate for hydrogen being used up compare to the rate for nitrogen?

(E) What is the rate law expression for the reaction?

(F) What is the numerical value of the reaction rate constant with units?

(G) What is the initial rate of reaction if each of the reactants is at a concentration of 0.125 M?

For the reaction X(g) + Y(g)  Z(g)

Experiment Initial [X] Initial [Y] Initial Rate
No. [mole/liter] [mole/liter] [M/sec]
4 2.00 x 10-3 1.00 x 10-2 4.16 x 10-6
5 2.00 x 10-3 5.00 x 10-3 2.08 x 10-6
-3
6 4.00 x 10 1.00 x 10-2 16.64 x 10-6

(H) What is the rate law expression for the reaction?
